The day didn't start to well with Kal and I sleeping in and Pop feeling ill and having to leave so as not to infect any of the kids.We had a fully booked day ahead of us starting with the normal pre chemo blood test.Straight after that he had a test called GFR or Nuclear Medicine.They inject a special dye into a vein then he has blood tests on the 2nd,3rd and 4th hour following.In between all that we had to fit in two other tests(hearing and heart) and a clinic appointment for admission after all that.All the results were good with the only possible negative being a slight drop in the extremely high pitch range.One of the levels dropped slightly but is still within what they deem normal range.The other was is the highest pitch range where it dropped slightly lower.But as the specialists said all the other levels were very good and there the ones we most commonly use in our normal everyday lives.
The clinic appointment turned into a non event as it just a simple "come back tomorrow,no beds".Kallan actually busted out into a little jig when Donna told us.
I'm pleased to say that kallan spent a lot time doing homework for the rest of the day.He got through quite a lot of work and was pretty pleased himself I think.We were watching a movie tonight with another family and Kal's at the coffee table doing handwriting exercises.Good on him.
So as of now we just have to hope for a bed tomorrow so chemo can get started and he can get over with.This round is tough one but he wants it over with so he can possibly come home for a short spell.He also wants to spend some time at school while he's home.That will be a big day for all of us i think.

Your poster is up at school today Kal. It was so funny to see you smiling out at us as we walked past. We really missed you at camping on the weekend and when this is all over we'll all have to go again. Hope to see you soon, love K, M, I & S xxxx
